SUBJ:  AT&T SE - Healthcare Open Enrollment 

CWA members in District 3 who are employed by AT&T Southeast have begun the 2026 open enrollment process. While navigating through the available options, many members noticed that the health insurance options available had changed from PPO to HCN. As a result, members reached out to CWA with concerns that the company was making changes to the existing healthcare plan. The District 3 Office contacted AT&T Labor Relations with these concerns, as we did not bargain any changes to the existing healthcare plan design. Below, I have listed the response from AT&T Labor Relations: 

According to benefits, the HCN and PPO plans have always been the names of the Southeast plans. The HCN is the main option for the Blue Cross network from an access perspective. If someone lives in a location outside of the Blue Cross standard area, then it was put forward with the name PPO. Accordingly, they are the exact same network of doctors. It just means certain zip codes that were previously not in the standard BCBS “access” area now are considered in the access area. Benefits also confirmed that while the name looks different the plan is the same and the network of doctors is the same. It is just the names about zip codes in a service access area or not. Additionally, according to benefits, there are still no referral requirements for specialist.

Local Presidents, 

We have been advised that due to a system issue some Mobility employees were paid incorrectly and in some instances not at all. The issue has been identified and is being addressed. I have also been advised that off cycle checks have been cut and payments for those with direct deposit should post today.
